Cedars

In my studies I find that it is problematic, even foolish, to ignore present realities when speaking of the past. Likewise, we cannot separate ourselves from what has happened before, no matter how much we try or wish to do so. It's difficult for most people in the United States to comprehend, to wrap their minds around, what occurs in the Near East. Certainly you won't glean much useful information from any news program you might watch on the television. I've found, however, a reliable, knowledgeable, and insightful source of information on Lebanon: Michael Totten. If you have some spare time to spend reading his "blog" then you should. His site is now a permanent presence over in my links to the right. Click below or there to visit and read.
